Hello Ellen! Where did you even find a rhododendron out in the elements at this time of the year?? I can’t add much to what has already been stated, but only to echo them. The composition is exquisite! As are the colors, contrasts, dof and clarity. I believe the water droplets only enhance the photo. Good work!

The color, clarity and depth of field are just stunning! Please share your camera settings on this shot – I’d love to know what you used so I can learn from it! By the way, I wandered over here via the Mr. Linky feature on the 2010 Virtual Photowalk post – I’m glad it led me here!

Thanks Karen, I wish Mr. Linky had a different name. This was in AP mode – f-4, 1/160 sec , 5mm, -0.7 exposure comp and ISO 100. I sharpened, cropped to almost square and darkened the leaves in photoshop.
